There’s a mother who is idling
in the elementary school pick up line – singing ooh
And a woman wearing a bright orange safety vest blowing a
whistle in time – singing ooh
And there’s a man across the street
at his front window lifting the blinds
To see the kids filing out with their
backpacks dragging behind – singing ooh
There’s a couple staring into each other’s eyes over their
gla**es of water – singing ooh
And a short order cook heading back to the grill
to flip their burgers over – singing ooh
There’s the woman with a missing front
tooth and a crooked smile
Counting the cash in her apron getting
ready for closing time – singing ooh
They’re all singing, they’re all singing, they’re all singing
The same song
There’s a single father waiting for his kids to arrive for their
monthly visit – singing ooh
And a woman walking around the gate
picking up the trash and abandoned papers – singing ooh
And a man in a camouflage jacket is holding his wife
He’s trying to convince her that it won’t be their last goodbye
– Ooh
They’re all singing, they’re all singing, they’re all singing
The same song
Maybe you came with a sad melody ringing in your heart –
Ooh
Maybe your notes are like flickers of hope trying to light the
dark – Ooh
Oh and I bring stories of my own from a broken life
But if we dare to open up to each other I think we’ll find
We’re all singing, We’re all singing, We’re all singing
The same song
